Imagine this: you're driving to work on an ordinary day when—BAM—you hit a pothole. Before you can catch your breath, you realize the road ahead is flooded, and to top it all off, there's a massive traffic jam.
Frustrated, you mutter a few curses at the city authorities.
Aren’t they supposed to fix these problems?
Frustrated, you mutter a few curses at the city authorities.
Aren’t they supposed to fix these problems?
But here’s the big question: why don’t things ever seem to get better?
Is it just incompetence, or could there be something else going on? Maybe—just maybe—the municipality doesn’t have enough money to fix these issues in the first place.
Is it just incompetence, or could there be something else going on? Maybe—just maybe—the municipality doesn’t have enough money to fix these issues in the first place.
Let’s break this down, starting with the basics.
Many people feel like shit these days, and much of it stems from imbalances in hormonal health and metabolism. Key hormones like testosterone, DHT, androgen receptors, and cortisol play crucial roles in our overall well-being. 
Modern lifestyles have created a pattern of modern deficiencies in these hormones for the average person, leading to modern diseases ( autoimmune disorders, cancer , diabetes etc ).
Then they make us believe everything is external and must be fixed from the outside, plus tell us to “eat healthy” (which isn’t enough—and if you don’t know what eating right actually means, it won’t move the needle).
India’s governance structure has grown complex, with 55 ministries & 54 departments leading to overlaps & inefficiencies. To meet the goals of Viksit Bharat by 2047, streamlining ministries & improving coordination can enhance efficiency & policy outcomes. Column in ET. 1/10
India’s Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs oversees urban development & government stationery—an odd relic from 1961’s Allocation of Business Rules. These quirks reveal the deeper issue of path dependency: once assigned, outdated tasks persist. 2/10 economictimes.indiatimes.com/opinion/et-com…
The Union government must streamline, while local governments expand. Union-level reforms should eliminate outdated rules, review 486 autonomous bodies with overlapping mandates, and disband obsolete institutions like the Salt Commissioner. 3/10

2025 will be a terrifying year for the league.
Guardiola's potentially last season, Phase 3 Postecoglou, and the most terrifying of them all?
Maresca's Chelsea with 3 generational talents in the midst.
Can you imagine if Chelsea do go all the way this season, and compete for the title until the very end - how TERRIFYING Phase 2 Maresca would be?
Making an already strong squad with versatile profiles even stronger.

And the most important thing is none of these players are "luxury", they are either signings in the areas Chelsea desperately need, or at the very least unique profiles that Chelsea appreciate.
That is what makes them especially terrifying. This is not like Real Madrid signing Mbappe.
This is like if Manchester City had signed Mohamed Salah after winning the treble.
— Estevao provides Chelsea an immense player in their weakest 2 attacking areas (RW/Right 8).
— Paez provides the same.
— Anselmino also addresses Chelsea's weakest area, centre back depth.

Two weeks after Gov. Cooper unilaterally issued a stay-at-home order telling us not to leave our homes except for "essential activities", demonstrators (including myself) gathered in a parking lot near his mansion to protest

1️⃣ Meet Daniel Boone:
Daniel Boone was a legendary American frontiersman born in 1734. He explored and helped settle Kentucky, and his adventures made him famous. He was brave, skilled in hunting and tracking, and played a huge role in opening up the American frontier.

2️⃣ Discovering the Cumberland Gap:
1767, Daniel Boone was on a hunting trip, looking for deer and wild turkeys to feed his group. He followed trails used by Native Americans and stumbled upon the Cumberland Gap, a pass through the Appalachian Mountains that opened new frontiers.

3️⃣ After the Hunt:
After Boone secured food for his group, they set up camp, cooked their game, and prepared for the journey ahead. The group included skilled hunters, guides, and settlers, all determined to explore and settle new lands. Their unity was key to their success.

H275Y mutation in Canada's H5N1 poultry strains is a red flag.
This mutation, linked to Tamiflu resistance, doesn’t typically show up in North American wild bird influenza strains.
And it's likely driven by human intervention.

H275Y cripples the effectiveness of our main antiviral.
In a pandemic scenario, we lose one of the only tools to slow the virus in humans.

Historically, H275Y has been observed in specific strains of influenza
But its appearance in H5N1 poultry strains in Canada is novel
The low pathogenicity avian influenza strains found in birds in N America rarely carry this mutation
The fact that it’s now appearing in farmed poultry suggests an interaction between human antiviral use & viral evolution.

Firstly, don't give this man a microphone or a platform to talk off of.
I thought his interviewing talents were atrocious. Further into to the segment, he goes to talk & I am sorry but he sounds like a bumbling idiot.

Feels, if he a diplomat with a portfolio, sent overseas, representing the NZ Govt as one of it's cabinet ministers
He would sound like Naina Mahuta and represent us poorly unless he uses a English interpreter.

The other day, Tamaki said 'disenchanted', then he said 'all the disses'. What he meant was ' Maori feel 'disenfranchised' from reality
Yeah... nah, that's not going to cut it for me, as a NZ political member of Parliament. Very low energy displeasing

1. “We need to get the conflicts of interest OUT of the health agencies. This is step one.”
“There are just unbelievable conflicts of interests in the FDA, the CDC, the NIH. We’ve got to get those conflicts of interests out so it’s clean.”

The revolving door between corporate powers like Big Pharma and the federal agencies that are meant to regulate them is poison to our health, our faith in each other, and the integrity of our Republic.
